High Potential of Impact Investment to Catalyze Sustainable and Resilient Development in Frontier Markets in the ASEAN

Chapter 6 in Impact Investment Funds for Frontier Markets in Southeast Asia, 2015, pp 139-156 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Because they are less developed than the emerging markets of the region, relatively modest amounts of capital can have a substantial social and environmental impact in the frontier countries of the ASEAN. At the same time, their economic growth prospects look promising. The IMF predicts strong average nominal GDP growth of over 7 percent with a standard deviation of less than 1 percent for the ASEAN frontier (Figure 6.1 and Table 6.1) in the coming years.
